Teaching Learning

Teachers around the country should use consistent standard and practices and pass high stake test on the information they have learned. Teacher education programs can better prepare teachers education by incorporating the NETS-T in their certification course. To help with their continuing professional development they can learn with online conferences,webinars that are specific to their area of study.

National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers

The goal of the standards is encouraged best practices in PK-12 learning environments. NETS-T focuses on teachers abilities to facilitate and inspire students learning and creativity. Teachers learn how how to implement this standard as they learn about performance assessments, portfolio assessments and authentic assessments that model real world activities. I fell that these standards are into only beneficial to the teachers but students as well, as they enhance 21st Century skills, and technology into the classrooms.
